El Tribut de Scala Dei Priorat
Tasting Note
Produced from a mixture of old vine Garnacha, Carignan, and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes, this wine is aged in French oak barrels for 12 months, giving it a rich and complex flavour.
Scala Dei El Tribut has a deep ruby colour with aromas of ripe black fruits, minerals, and spices. On the palate, it offers a velvety texture, with flavours of blackberries, plums, and a hint of vanilla from the oak. This is a full-bodied wine, with a long and persistent finish, that is perfect to pair with hearty meat dishes or strong cheeses.
Producer
Scala Dei is a trailblazer in the Priorat region, both historically and stylistically. Its origins date back to 1194, when Carthusian monks laid the winery’s sacred foundations. Today it maintains the artisanal, traditional spirit of its origins, under the guidance of enigmatic winemaker Ricard Rofes. The wines exquisitely capture the essence of a rugged terrain and Mediterranean climate. In some of their seventy hectares of historic vineyards, where Garnacha and Cariñena grapes flourish, vines have been grown for centuries. Handcrafted with limited production, the wines exhibit a grace, energy, and transparent terroir expression that distinguish them from others in the region.
